ok, disclaimer: i don’t really have an old favorite brownie recipe, so the title of this post is a bit of a misnomer. but this recipe, this amazing recipe, yielded the most delicious, fudgy, and scrumptious brownies that i’ve ever baked.
hi my dear readers! how are you? i have some news to share! remember how i hinted at big changes way back in april? well it’s officially official! i’ve accepted admission to a masters of public administration program at the university of washington, and mike and i will be moving up to seattle at the end of the summer. it’s going to be a big change for us – we’re excited to try living in a new city, and i’m excited to go back to school, but we’re also going to miss all of our friends and family here in california.
i love all things with fruit and butter and sugar – crisps, tarts, pies, cobbler – you name it, and i’ll bet that i love it!
as promised in an earlier post, i’m sharing another delicious lemon recipe! lemon bars hold a special place in my heart – i can remember picking them out from behind beautiful glass bakery cases when i was a kid, after swimming lessons (or maybe after ballet lessons? i’m not entirely sure – eating at yummy bakery memories blend for me – it was a rough childhood, i know). while i tend to favor chocolate desserts, and just plain old chocolate in general, lemon bars are one of the few exceptions i make to my chocoholic nature.
how is it possible that christmas is only five days away? this season has definitely slipped by at our house. but we managed to squeeze in some holiday cookie time last week, and i thought you may want to use this recipe in the few days before christmas, too!
